彖传 · Tuan Zhuan Commentary
师，众也。贞正也，能以众正，可以王矣。刚中而应，行险而顺，以此毒天下，而民从之，吉又何咎矣。
Shi means multitude. Correct means righteous; being able to lead the multitude correctly, one can become king. Firm and central with response, moving through danger yet compliant - using this to discipline the world, the people follow. What blame can there be in this good fortune?
现代解读 · Modern Interpretation
师卦论用兵之道。统帅须正义刚中，得民心才能成功。行险须顺民心，征伐须有正当理由。
Shi discusses the way of using military force. The commander must be righteous and centered; only by winning the people's hearts can success be achieved. Taking risks must follow the people's will; warfare must have just cause.
